Day 29 : Garland

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett Day 29: Garland

Day 29: Garland


Today's button uses the embroidery technique of plushwork, so the button is very tactile and quite like velvet. I've worked a grappe edge to keep everything tidy, and colonial knots in the centre. I do enjoy colonial knots... 

Mark cut me some templates for this technique over a year ago, and I do think they make a lovely button, so now I need to make sure all of the templates work well. It's a great way to use up threads!
